I… like this joke and haven’t heard it before!

Is this allowed or do I have to shit on it to be cool?

I haven’t seen this one. Enjoyed it.

There is a relevant xkcd for this, but I’ll mark it as a lazy load.

I found Samsung’s struggled after 1.5 years. I’m 3 years in on Pixel 6a. Less bloat really seems to help.

What phone would you recommend privacy wise?

Most times overhead is less important than readability and maintainability of code. If someone cannot read your code, they’ll mess it up far worse.

Optimisation is for bottlenecks. No point making code run in 0.01ms rather than 0.02 if it later hits at 0.7s bottleneck like file io or DB. For most things, readability is everything unless you’re developing operating systems or close to metal libraries. Many compilers will inline functions anyway so the only gain is increased suffering of colleagues and later bugs in production when it’s modified by someone else. Cognitive load is very important and why many static code analysis tools pick it up.

Yeah. That one triggered me.

Why would it be? Software is good based on it’s use and recommendations from real folk, not *s. Many project not on github
